The Knight from the Chapter 62: Heart-to-Heart

As an unavoidable hurdle, when the page is opened, it would be recorded thus:

Once upon a ti, there was a lovely little princess nad Snow White. Her stepmother, the Queen, was vain and wicked. She worried that one day Snow White would be more beautiful than her.

Therefore, she made Snow White wear ragged clothes and forced her to work as a cleaning maid. Every day, the Queen would ask the magic mirror on the wall who was the fairest of them all, demanding the mirror answer that she was the fairest woman in the world.

Only then could Snow White be spared from the Queen's jealousy and resentnt.

Today, the Queen was inquiring again, asking a mirror.

"Slave within the magic mirror, co from the distant lands, from the gale and darkness, I summon you. Speak, appear before my eyes imdiately."

Images began to appear within the magic mirror. Flas soared into the air. A ghastly pale mask appeared before the Queen's eyes. The mask began to answer the Queen: "What does the Queen wish to know?"

"Magic mirror on the wall, who is the fairest of them all?"

"Your Majesty, your beauty is renowned, but I have seen another maiden. Rags cannot conceal her graceful deanor, so she is the fairest woman in the world."

The sa answer as for a thousand days. Since it had changed, the Queen was extrely angry.

"Tell

her na. I will destroy her."

"Her lips are as red as roses, her hair as black as ebony, her skin as fair and tender as snow."

The Queen could suspect others based on the first two descriptions, but when it ca to skin as fair as snow, she instantly recalled one person's characteristic: "Snow White!"

And at this mont, Snow White was wearing tattered clothes with patches, holding a worn-out rag, scrubbing the fountain pool. Many, many pigeons were gathered around Snow White.

When Snow White went to the well to draw water, she told the pigeons: "Let

tell you a secret. This well is a wishing well.

As long as I make a wish, everything will co true."

After saying this, she began to sing. The lyrics expressed the hope that today, the one she loved would appear, and if he appeared, he would say to her, love .

And at this very mont, a Prince happened to be riding a white horse outside the castle. He was accidentally captivated by the beautiful singing and couldn't help but co in to investigate. With one glance, he discovered Snow White.

So he joined in, singing along. The beloved one had appeared.

Snow White also noticed the other person and imdiately ran back into the castle, blushing with sha. Looking at her ragged clothes, she suddenly felt embarrassed.

However, the Prince did not mind. Instead, he took a few steps forward. Perhaps he was also afraid his movents were too abrupt and would scare Snow White, so he stood downstairs and began to sing: "Finally t you, stay, listen to

sing a song, just one song, a song for you.

A heart that misses you, never ceasing, endless true longing. A love that enchants , a love that makes

tremble again. A song, the heart keeps singing, singing for love, giving only for you."

But this scene, this grand display of public affection, was witnessed by the wicked Queen. She drew the curtains and imdiately summoned the Hunter.

Sitting in the seat originally belonging to the King, from that throne, she issued the command.

"Take her to the forest, find a desolate place, let her go pick wildflowers."

The Hunter hadn't yet realized the severity of the matter. Going out to admire wildflowers, what could possibly go wrong? One could only say this Queen still had a bit of a conscience.

So he bowed slightly and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty."

"And then I order you to kill her in that place."

The Hunter felt he had misheard and began to panic.

"But Your Majesty, she is just a little princess."

"Silence! Do you know what punishnt you will face if you fail?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"To maintain your loyalty to , to prove you will not fail, you need to place her heart in this box and bring it back to ."

Beihai spent a bit of money in the Royal City to buy several ugly-cute helts.

There were frog helts, ordinary iron helts, and even fathead fish helts. Wearing these ugly-cute helts, the Elden Lord will ascend the throne!

"Sir, why do you suddenly want to buy helts?"

"Elsa, you'll know soon. This is called taking precautions before sothing happens."

Beihai looked to the side and took out so coins. The stall owner's hands nimbly wove a hat, incredibly fast, much faster than a loom.

In no ti at all, a cute tiger-skin hat was finished.

"Noble Knight, this is made to resemble a tiger as you requested."

"You've worked hard."

He picked up this hat and placed it on Elsa's head. Now he had one, and his little attendant had one too. Beihai put on a comfortable helt.

To be precise, it was just a head covering. After finishing all this, he headed towards the palace. As he walked, he didn't forget to ask the people around for information.

Information about Snow White, and about that wicked Queen.

The King had married a stepmother for Snow White, but not long after, the King fell ill and passed away. There was also a magic mirror in the palace that the Queen asked every day.

When Beihai arrived at the foot of the palace, he happened to bump into a Hunter who was hanging his head low, clearly preoccupied with sothing, rushing past.

Beihai saw the other person fully ard. Considering this was the story of Snow White, he imdiately grabbed the other's arm, blocking his path.

"Hold on! You're going to kill Snow White, right?!"

Beihai's sudden self-exposure clearly startled the Hunter, making him shudder. Already guilty, he couldn't hold it together, his speech stamring. He subconsciously wanted to slump to the ground, but Beihai was holding his arm, so he couldn't sit down.

"I, I, no, I'm not!"

"You're already exposed. But don't worry, I'll help you.

No, to be precise, I'll help that Princess, so you won't be in such a difficult position.

You have two choices. When you go to assassinate her, I'll jump out and stop you, making your mission fail."

"That won't work. I can't betray the Queen, or I'll be punished."

Beihai comforted him, wanting to say, just kill any random deer.

But then he thought, ah, no, that won't do.

Anyway, he couldn't say it out loud and let the other person infer it. Now the Hunter's train of thought was completely disrupted.

Subconsciously, in a mont of ruthless determination, the words just slipped out.

"So that's why there's a second choice. I'll give you my heart. You take my heart back to report your task complete."

"Ah!"

Hearing this, the Hunter wanted to sit down on the ground again.

Not just the Hunter, even Elsa directly plopped down on the ground, her eyes welling up with tears, about to cry on the spot.

"What's wrong with you all? I'll be fine, don't worry. This secret I only tell you: after this matter is done, I'll retrieve my own heart.

But rember, there must not be anyone selling hollow-hearted vegetables, or not even a god could save ."

Beihai had his own efforts and talents, so he could definitely survive after having his heart dug out. After all, this t the standards.

But he still had to take so insurance. For this type, there are always so weaknesses; it's impossible to be completely invincible.

Just like the most famous example: Bi Gan's heart was dug out, he encountered a seller of hollow-hearted vegetables, who said, 'Can a man live without a heart?' Then he suddenly ca to his senses and dropped dead on the spot!
